This Is How Dramatic "The Bachelor" Would Be With Disney Princesses
For starters, there would be a weird amount of singing to inanimate objects.
The Bachelor is already a pretty ~dramatic~ show. So what would happen if Disney Princesses were competing for that final rose?

A few of the contestants would be less than psyched about the...lack of diversity with the suitor.

And Mulan wouldn't be into wearing those insane ball gowns every day...

We Trained Like UFC Fighters For 60 Days And Shit Got Intense
Warning: This post contains women who could kick your ass.
So, maybe you've seen UFC fighting before. But if not, it looks a little something like this:
Yeah, scary stuff.
UFC
And while that would TERRIFY most human beings, Michelle and Jordan were brave enough to try training like UFC fighters for 60 days with a final challenge at the end... fighting each other.
BuzzFeedBlue / Via youtube.com
Last October, when Michelle was walking home she was mugged at knifepoint. So, learning how to MMA fight was a way for Michelle to mentally overcome the fear she's felt since that incident.
BuzzFeed Video
Michelle started her journey at 123.6lbs, and a lower weight class than Jordan. Michelle would heavily rely on her cardio background to help her tire Jordan out in the end fight.

We Did An Insane UFC Weight Cut Workout And We Do Not Recommend It
DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME.
Hi! We're Michelle and Jordan. This summer, we decided to take on the challenge of training like UFC fighters for 60 days.
BuzzFeed Video
As a part of this experiment, the day before our big fight we had to do what is called a "weight cut," which essentially cuts your body's water weight. It was insane, and collectively, we both lost 5 pounds in an hour.*
*We do not condone trying this on your own, and there are several health risks associated with doing this.

The first step was to dehydrate and fast the night before the event.

Then, we applied this nasty stuff called Albolene.

We Tried Selena Gomez's Sweat Routine For A Week And It Was A Challenge
It was *hot.*
What's up internet? We're Michelle and Jordan. In the past, we've tried some pretty insane shit.
This is us fighting each other after 60 days of MMA training. We're friends still, don't worry.
We were recently inspired by our coworkers Lara and Nina to check out Selena-Gomez-approved urban sweat lodge, Shape House. We wanted to see what would happen if we sweat every day for a full week. Check out the video of our experience here:

First, we met up with Sophie Chiche, the founder of Shape House, to learn more about the health risks, benefits, and what we were getting into.
If you ever decide to go, make sure your body is ready and right to sweat! Claimed benefits include but are not limited to: smoother skin, weight loss, better sleep, higher metabolism.
Once we were cleared to sweat, our first day began. We put on these cute cotton outfits:

Non-Athletes Tried Olympic High Diving And Things Didn't Go Well
Luckily, we had gold medalist Chris Mears coaching us along the way!

Let's face it, diving is one of the COOLEST sports to watch during the Olympics. That's because the best of the best, like British gold medalist Chris Mears, make jumping off 3m boards (all while twisting and flipping) look downright easy. But how would non-athletes fare if given the same opportunity?
Adam Pretty / Getty Images
Luckily for us, Chris was willing to give us the pointers as to how to perfect our diving form...but it was up to us to stick the dives. We found out pretty quickly that jumping into diving is not that easy:

People Tried Stabbing An Olympic Fencer And Pretty Much Got Owned
“I just fended for my life.”
It would be such a dream to compete with an Olympian, right? Well, when it comes to fencing an Olympian... shit gets so real, so fast:

We asked Monica Aksamit, an Olympic bronze medalist, to grace us with her fencing abilities and challenge some regular people to a duel.

These Mothers Got Head-To-Toe Makeovers And It Revitalized Their Self-Confidence
“I encourage people to take time for self-care.”
Being a mother is definitely amazing, but it can also be difficult to make time for self-expression through style. So, we decided to give these new mothers (and grandmothers) their dream makeovers:

Women Tried The NFL Combine And Totally Kicked Ass
“I now have a much greater appreciation for football.”
With football season in full swing, we decided to take a shot at training like football players to see how we stack up. We attempted to complete the NFL Combine, aka the fitness test that NFL hopefuls take. We had never seen it attempted by a woman before, but we were ready for the challenge:

We enlisted Steve Smith, former New York Giants wide receiver and Super Bowl champion, to teach us how to achieve our potential in a sport we had never tried before.

After a comprehensive warm up, we started the test off with the bench press. Steve said the bench press tests a player's ability to push off defenders.

We Trained Like Victoria's Secret Models For A Week And This Is What Happened
For one week, we lived and exercised just like the Victoria’s Secret angels do.
BuzzFeedYellow
'Tis the season for the Victoria's Secret runway show. It's that time of year when everyone asks: How the hell do the models get those bodies? Is the workout really that special? Is there a magical elixir? Well, we decided to find out firsthand. Check out our experience here:
BuzzFeedYellow / Via youtube.com
We enlisted the help of professional trainer Steve Zim, who has trained models for Marie Claire, Cosmo, Vogue, Elle, and the Victoria's Secret runway show.
BuzzFeedYellow
We then began the seven-day transformation. Steve's workouts focus on higher reps and lower weight to avoid bulking the muscle, since training to be a model is training for a specific look, not for function.
Each workout was 90 minutes of high-rep, low-weight strength training plus 60 minutes of cardio.
